In visual studio, C programming If I align with tab key(\t), I have some problem.

for example, If I print example below

aaa\t123\t1234\n
bbb\t456\t4567\n
abcd\t456\t4567\n

I get kind of

aaa    123    1234
bbb    456    4567
abcd          456    4567

Can I solve this problem? I want to make third line align with first and second line. Even if I insert 2 tab key (\t\t), problem is not solved.

See the `printf` function, like [this](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/14420924/aligning-output-values-in-c) – Mark Benningfield Dec 01 '20 at 16:25

Consider formatting with spaces instead. A tab stop is open to interpretation but a space is always a space. – Retired Ninja Dec 01 '20 at 16:25
